SUBCONTRACT AGREEMENT
SAFE COMMUNITIES PROGRAM
THIS CONTRACT AND AGREEMENT is entered into by and between the parties
shown below as Contracting Parties.
Section 1. CONTRACTING PARTIES:
The Receiving Agency, South Plains Emergency Medical Services/RAC, hereinafter
referred to as "SPEMS" or as "SUBGRANTEE",
and
The Performing Agency, City of Lubbock, hereinafter referred to as "COL" or as the
"CONTRACTOR".
Section 2. CONTRACT PERIOD:
This contract will begin upon signature herein of both parties and approval by
TXDOT, and end upon completion of the work as specified herein, but no later than
September 30, 2001.
Section 3. HISTORY OF PROGRAM:
Overview and Components:
Safety City is a 2 112 -acre miniature city complete with traffic signals, crosswalks and
small -size automobiles used to teach traffic safety techniques to children. It simulates a
real traffic environment featuring many of the safety hazards children encounter daily.
After completing a two-week in -class study of safety procedures, children will make a
field trip to Safety City. Upon arrival at the miniature city, a trained staff member
will present a short discussion about safety procedures to the children. Afterwards,
each child will have the opportunity to practice the safety techniques taught in the
classroom phase on the streets of Safety City. The children will be divided into
either two or three separate groups depending on their grade classification. Second
graders will participate as pedestrians and bicyclists. Fourth graders will participate
Page I of 5
as pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists. The children will rotate throughout the
groups in their grade level and thus, get to practice all safety procedures with the
supervision of trained volunteers. Potential safety "hazards" such as over -passes,
construction areas and school zones are included so that children can learn how to
react to these circumstances in a realistic setting. The entire field trip lasts
approximately 90 minutes.
Participants:
Safety City serves approximately 5000 local and area second and fourth grades each
year. Since 1993, over 20,000 children have visited Safety City. Beginning in 1996,
area school districts were asked to participate at Safety City. Frenship I.S.D. and
Cooper I.S.D. both received the cumculum from Lubbock I.S.D. and began that year.
The 1997-1998 school year saw a larger number of students from the outlying school
districts participate, including Morton I.S.D, Whiteface I.S.D. and Slaton I.S.D.
Special classes are arranged for small groups such as pre-schools, Boy Scout and Girl
Scout Troops, and any other organization wishing to visit Safety City.
Partnerships:
Lubbock's Safety City is a partnership between the City of Lubbock Parks and
Recreation Department, Junior League of Lubbock, Lubbock Independent School
District and numerous sponsors. The Junior Leagues of Lubbock initiated the project
and designated a lead gift of $60,000. The City of Lubbock contributed the site for
Safety City, as well as, staff support through the Parks and Recreation Department.
Lubbock Independent School District prepares the curriculum and maintains the
scheduling of all L.LS.D second and forth grade classes. The classroom facility and
the miniature city was designed by members of the Lubbock Chapter of American
Institute of Architects. Numerous businesses, civic groups, PTA's and concemed
citizens have contributed to Safety City in the form of building sponsorships, vehicle
sponsorships and in-kind donations.
Funding and Operating Costs:
After the initial investment of sponsorships and donations, the entire bulk of the
yearly expenses lay with the City of Lubbock Park's and Recreation Department. The
annual operating expense for Safety City is approximately $35,000 per fiscal year.
Income for the facility is generated from: fees paid for each child to visit, birthday
parties, open recreation and special events. All expenses are paid out of the City of
Lubbock's General Fund.

the period from October 1, 2000 through September 30, 2001. The agreement will provide for reimbursement
